Step by step

Country interior: ideas and inspiration

First choose a few anchor pieces in solid oak, such as a dining table, a sideboard or a bespoke cabinet, and let the rest of the room breathe calmly around them. Mix classic shapes with a modern touch, keep a warm, earthy palette, and repeat natural materials like linen, wool and wood through every room.

  • Solid oak furniture as a base.
  • Natural fabrics and linen curtains.
  • Soft, earthy colours.
  • Bespoke cabinets that fit seamlessly.
  • Combine classic with a modern touch.
